Hi there.

There is a new project addressing the retry, https://github.com/jd/tenacity .

bye

Wasn't aware of tenacity, will look into changing my code from using my fork of retry to this. Thanks!

Tenacity does not have the same api structure as this one. Its a fork of retrying
I feel this library has so much better apis
I am thinking of making a fork of this one and tackling pending issues and PRs. Not sure how much support I will get

I also prefer the succinct syntax of this library e.g. @retry(tries=7) (this library) is less typing than @retry(stop=stop_after_attempt(7)) (tenacity).

The library still works and is still useful (at least for me), but it could be even more useful if other people could contribute to it. I also found retry2, but that doesn't even allow issues.

@invl @rgreinho @williara any chance of adding other maintainers for the repo / package?

[rgreinho]

I have nothing to do with this repo, except that I submitted one patch, so unfortunately I cannot help you @benthorner .

If anyone wishes to participate, you are welcome!

For anyone who finds this topic via search, I recommend checking out backoff as an alternative:

I'm not affiliated with that project. It just worked well for my needs, so it might work well for yours!
